Cut Split Stack Burn
I have a HUSQVARNA 362XP that I love but she hates me. This was my first real saw, and I fell in love with her because i finally had a saw that would hold its own against my uncles 044 and to a little lesser extent my fathers ms460. I blew it up in the spring so naturally I wanted my saw to whip my fathers so I ordered a big bore kit. I installed a the big bore kit and rebuilt the carb, she ran like a champ tuned down to 10,000 for the first two tanks, then i tuned her to 13,500 and the very next time I went into the wood the one of the cylinder bolts rattled loose and killed my flywheel. So I ordered a replacement flywheel used off of ebay and some new bolts. I put her all back together and tried to start her up, on the third pull i heard a nasty noise and then it pulled as if there was no compression. Being about fed up and worried about the aftermarket top end I quickly tore it back down only to find nothing wrong. I posted on here and a lot of you good men gave me some great ideas. Well tonight I went back down to the basement sure I would find something wrong....long story short I did the used flywheel had the built in tooth, well it snapped off. So my piston would just stop and hence build no compression. On sunday Im visiting a friend with a new born who owns a farm, he has a bunch off tires old non-running stihls Im gonna try to buy off of him as he just had a baby and needs cash, I was gonna flip them on ebay. The problem is I need that money to give my two daughters a Decent christmas because the dealership has been too slow to make any chash (flat rate stinks) If any one has a used flywheel off of a 362-365-371-372-385 that is dirt and I mean DIRT cheap please let me know. My wife will kill me if she finds out I sunk more money into my saw. She is gonna kill me when the lil polaun I got of o8f150 shows up, she wont believe me its for my nephew as his firts saw. Guys look around and see if you got one lying around. Thanks Matt
